[QUOTE="Lalato, post: 2542410, member: 9171"] I picked up the [url="http://www.greenronin.com/catalog/grr1801"]Thieves' World Player's Manual[/url] at GenCon (signed by Robert Schwalb, Gary Astleford AND LYNN ABBEY!). Woohoo... Due to an unforseen addiction to [url="http://www.trikinggames.com"]Anachronism[/url], I was too busy to read the book while at the con. Then work called... and I had to go direct to D.C. from Indy for a week of work and meetings. ::stupid work:: I finally started unpacking my loot from GenCon this weekend... and there's that TW Player's Manual looking all sad and lonely, so I start reading it. My hats off to the design team. Excellent job translating TW to d20. I wasn't sure it was possible, but the flavor is right... and the magic system is perfect. I haven't checked the boards since before GenCon... so I don't know if there was the usual question and answer thread. If not, feel free to ask questions, I would be happy to answer them as best I can. Here are the main headings in the Table of Contents... [B]Chapter One: A Santan Primer[/B] (overview of Sanctuary) [B]Chapter Two: Cultures and Backgrounds[/B] (Cultures from Aurveshan to Wrigglie... and Backgrounds from Academic to Soldier) [B]Chapter Three: Character Classes[/B] (New Classess Include: Assassin, Godsworn, Initiate, Mage, Noble, Priest, Ranger, Savant, Survivor, Witch) [B]Chapter Four: Prestige Classes[/B] (everything you would expect... from Blue Star Adept to Hell Hound) [B]Chapter Five: Skills and Feats[/B] (new skill: Gambling... and new uses for old skills) [B]Chapter Six: Supplemental Rules[/B] (Getting Hurt (Massive Damage, etc.), Reputation and Contacts) [B]Chapter Seven: Equipment and Resources[/B] (from weapons to drugs) [B]Chapter Eight: Sorcery[/B] (a magic system that scales from low magic to high magic easily... and fits with the flavor of TW) [B]Chapter Nine: Spells[/B] (I haven't made it this far yet) [B]Appendix I: Gods of Sanctuary[/B] [B]Appendix II: Character Glossary[/B] [/QUOTE]
